Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery at this shop means fully stripping a piece down to its frame, inspecting the springs and padding, then rebuilding it with your chosen fabric or leather. Repair work covers everything from broken legs and wobbly frames to sagging seats and damaged cushion cores. Clients can bring in anything from a single dining chair to a large sectional sofa, and the shop will assess what's worth restoring versus replacing. Fabric selection is part of the process, with guidance on durability, texture, and how different materials hold up in real home use.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does furniture reupholstery take in San Bruno?
Most standard pieces like sofas or armchairs take one to three weeks depending on the shop's current workload and how complex the job is. If you need custom fabric ordered, that can add a few extra days to the timeline.
Is it worth reupholstering an old sofa instead of buying a new one?
It often is, especially if the frame is solid wood and structurally sound. A quality reupholster job can cost significantly less than buying a comparable new piece, and you get to keep a frame that's built to last.
Can Kwong's Upholstery fix a broken furniture frame along with the fabric?
Yes, the shop handles both repair and reupholstery, so structural issues like cracked frames or broken joints get addressed before the new fabric goes on. This is actually the smarter approach since there's no point putting new material on a damaged frame.
Do I need to bring my furniture in, or can someone pick it up?
Most customers drop off their pieces directly at the shop in San Bruno. It's worth calling ahead to ask about pickup or delivery options for larger items, as some shops in the area offer that service for an additional fee.
How do I choose the right fabric for a high-traffic piece?
The shop can walk you through fabric options based on how the piece gets used, whether it's a family room sofa with kids and pets or a formal accent chair. Generally, tightly woven fabrics and performance materials hold up better than loose weaves in busy households.
What's the average cost to reupholster a two-cushion sofa in the San Bruno area?
Pricing varies based on the size of the piece, the fabric you choose, and the condition of the frame, but a two-cushion sofa in the Bay Area typically runs anywhere from $600 to $1,500 or more for quality work. Getting an in-person estimate is the most reliable way to know what your specific piece will cost.
